PREFACE. 


Tub  circumstance  that  gave  rise  to  the  compilation  of  this 
Dictionary  may  be  briefly  stated.  Several  years  ago  an  American 
minister  of  a  kindred  Society,  who  had  purchased  a  copy  of  the 
Author's  Grammar,  wrote  him  expressing  both  "  regret  that  the 
English-Zulu  Vocabulary  was  not  larger,"  and  the  opinion  "that 
a  copious  and  reliable  English-Zulu  Dictionary  was  a  desideratum 
in  i^atal.''  These,  and  similar  observations  made  subsequently  by 
others,  led  irresistibly  to  the  conclusion  that  Perrin's  small  book, 
though  possessing  considerable  merit,  is  not  sufficiently  comprehen- 
sive to  meet  the  varied  necessities  of  those  persons  whose  require- 
ments go  beyond  the  ordinary  details  of  daily  life.  And  impressed 
with  the  conviction  that  out  of  his  own  limited  stock  of  the 
vernacular,  and  by  fre(juent  converse  with  the  natives  themselves, 
he  might,  at  least  in  part,  be  able  to  supply  the  need  felt  by  most 
missionaries  there,  the  Author  commenced  the  present  work. 

[t  contains  Zulu  for  about  Eighteen  Thousand  English  Words, 
The  whole  of  the  Zulu  will  not  be  equally  well  known  in  every 
part  of  Natal.  For  example,  plants  indigenous  in  the  upper 
districts  may  appear  exotic  to  natives  residing  on  the  coast,  or  vice 
versa  ;  hence  the  thing  itself  being  unknown,  the  name  also  will 
probably  be  unknown. 

For  valuable  assistance  afforded  in  the  preparation  of  the 
Dictionary,  the  Author  is  indebted  to  several  ministers  and  laymen. 
To  those  gentlemen  who  examined  parts  of  the  work  in  manuscript, 
and  the  brethren  of  the  Natal  District  who  unanimously  and 
cordially  recommended  it  to  the  consideration  of  the  Missionary 
Committee,  he  is  under  peculiar  obligations.

iv. 

Numerous  gleanings  have  been  made  from  "books  published  in 
and  on  the  Zulu  language.  But  many  words  which  could  not 
stand  the  test  of  criticism  by  competent  natives  were  at  once 
rejected. 

!N"otwithstanding  every  effort  to  secure  accuracy,  it  would  be  too 
much  even  to  hope  that  the  work  is  perfect.  Those,  however,  who 
wish  to  consult  it  need  to  be  guarded  against  the  error  into  which 
some  Colonists  have  fallen,  of  supposing  that  every  Zulu,  or  what 
is  worse,  young  Natalian,  who  to  a  certain  extent  speaks  the 
vernacular  fluently,  is  thoroughly  acquainted  with  the  language. 
Such  a  conclusion,  if  arrived  at  with  respect  to  a  European  tongue, 
would  of  course  be  absurd.  With  certain  exceptions,  to  be  noticed 
in  the  Introduction,  most  of  the  words  found  herein  either  are 
or  ought  to  be  in  general  use.  In  determining  philological  diffi- 
culties, it  will  always  be  safe  to  adopt  the  Author's  plan  of 
submitting  them  to  a  number  of  the  senior  heathen  living  at 
remote  distances  from  civilization. 


PREFACE  TO  THE  SECOND  EDITION. 


The  Supplement  to  this  Edition,  which  contains  more  than  foui 
hundred  additional  words,  includes  some  of  foreign  origin,  which 
are  clearly  understood  by  the  Natives  in  their  commercial  inter- 
course with  the  English  and  Dutch  Colonists  ;  and  the  Zulu 
language  will,  in  the  future,  be  further  enriched  by  similar  words. 
Terms  have  yet  to  be  iitvented  or  Zuluised  to  distinguish  between 
a  palace  and  a  hut,  a  cathedral  and  a  chapel,  a  crypt  and  a  grave, 
a  molecule  and  a  ball. 

With  deep  sorrow  I  record  the  fact  that  three  of  the  ex- 
cellent Ministers  to  whom  this  work  was  dedicated  have  passed 
away. 


To  ^7ie  Ebverends  W.  MoRLEY  PuNSHox,  LL.D.,  John  KiLxNeh, 
Ebenezer  E.  Jenkins,  M.A.,  Mahmaduke  C.  Osbokn 
(Secretary  of  the  Conference)^  the  General  Secretaries  of 
the  Wesleyan  Missionary  Society. 

Kkverend  and  Dear  Sirs, 

Had  there  been  time  to  consult  the  brethren 
of  the  Natal  District,  there  is  little  doubt  that  the  announcement 
of  my  intention  to  dedicate  this  Dictionary  to  you  would  ha  ve 
been  received  with  unmingled  satisfacti-^n  The  relations  existing 
between  yourselves  and  the  Wesleyan  Ministers  labouring  in  that 
Colony  have,  at  least  on  your  part,  been  so  genial,  and  characterized 
by  so  much  urbanity  and  tenderness,  even  for  the  feelings  of  those 
from  whom  you  may  have  differed,  that  communications  in  your 
own  autograph,  received  by  missionaries  in  that  far-distanc  field  ol 
toil,  are  welcomed  by  all.  And  the  pleasure  is  enhanced  by  the 
consideration  of  those  noble  and  unflagging  efforts  which  you  have 
recently  put  forth  to  free  the  Society  from  its  present  embarrass- 
ments. These  facts  alone  are  a  sufficient  reason  for  the  liberty 
I  have  taken  with  your  names. 

To  the  above,  however,  must  bo  added  the  uniform  kindness 
I  have  personally  received,  particularly  during  the  time  spent  under 
the  Missionary  Committee's  direction.  And  the  present  connection — 
which  will,  by  my  entrance  into  the  home  work,  be  severed — must 
always  be  remembered  as  a  gleam  of  sunshine  that  cheered  many 
an  hour  of  monotonous  toil. 

With  Christian  regards, 

I  am,  Keverend  and  dear  Sirs, 

Most  truly  yours, 
London,  CHAKLES  ROBERTS. 


February  Wi,  1880. 


INTRODUCTION. 


The  Native  population  of  Natal  comprises  a  few  tribes  known  as  the  ama- 
Xosa,  the  ama-Swazi,  the  ama-Tefula,  and  a  large  number  of  the  ama-Zulu. 
It  is  probable  th;it  the  latter  emigrated  originally  from  the  interior  of  Africa  ; 
and  travelling  in  a  south-easterly  direction,  settled  between  the  Black  and  the 
AVliite  Umvolosi  river.  Thence,  during  the  days  of  the  famous  chief  Chaka 
^hey  rapidly  enlarged  the  territory  already  acquired  by  prowess,  spreading 
over  the  adjacent  country,  till  eventually  their  dominion  extended  from  th-i 
Umpongolo  river  on  the  north  to  the  Tukola  on  the  south,  and  the  Blood  and 
Buffalo  rivers  on  the  west.  In  every  part  of  this  extensive  tract  of  land  the 
Zalu  language  is  generally  spoken.  Not  a  few  of  the  natives,  dissatisfied  with 
the  arbitrary  sway  oi  Heathen  despotism,  or  eager  to  obtain  work  ;  fleeing  aa 
outlaws,  or  impelled  by  a  roving  disposition  ;  have  from  time  to  time  crossed 
the  borders,  and  sought  protection  both  in  Natal  and  the  Transvaal.  Thus 
by  a  large  section  of  the  population  of  these  countries^  especially  in  the 
former,  the  Zulu  is  also  spoken.  Between  the  words,  the  signification,  and 
the  grammatical  forms  of  the  several  dialects  common  in  Natal,  a  substantial 
agreement  will  be  found.  With  the  exception  of  the  ama-Xosa,  many  of  the 
differences  are  not  greater  or  more  numerous  than  the  provincialisms  of 
England.  The  ama-Tefula  put  y  for  as  yapa  for  lapa  ;  and  change  ny  into 
71,  as  innama  for  innyama.  The  ama-Swazi  place  t  for  z,  as  umfati  foi 
umfazi ;  angati  for  angazi.  The  ama-Lala,  whose  dialect  is  harsh,  substitute 
y  for  Jc,  d  for  s,  and  to  for  y.  The  natives  concerned  feel  a  pride  in  using  and 
perpetuating  these  clannish  distinctions.  Since  it  is  not  desirable  that  a 
lexicographer  should  include  mere  barbarisms,  but  few  specimens  will  appear 
in  the  following  pages. 


viii. 

This  remark  does  not  liowever  apply  with  equal  force  to  those  **Uku- 
hlonipa  "  customs  so  generally  prevalent,  which  have  not  only  burdened  the 
language  with  a  number  of  superfluous  words,  but  have  given  a  false  and 
unnatural  meaning  to  others,  as  in  the  word  *'isamkfclo,"  for  hand.  A  limited 
number  of  such  w^ords  have,  by  the  force  of  custom,  been  engrafted  into  the 
language. 

There  is  another  observation  respecting  the  correspondence  of  words  in  th'3 
English  and  the  Zulu.  When  the  reader  recollects  the  synonyms,  or  rather 
pseudo-synonyms,  of  our  own  tongue,  he  will  not  be  surprised  to  learn  that  a 
few  of  the  translations  are  only  approximations.  It  is  impossible,  in  every 
instance,  to  obtain  in  Zulu  a  word  which  corresponds  exactly  with  the  English. 

Another  remark  must  be  made  respecting  the  prefixes,  which,  when  imited 
to  nouns,  are  not  easily  recognized.  Take,  for  example,  "  Utando,"  love  ;  does 
it  belong  to  the  fifth  or  the  sixth  class  ?  So  with  Ukula,"  weeds  ;  judging 
from  its  form,  we  may  refer  it  to  either  the  fifth  or  the  eighth  class  of  nouns. 
To  obviate  such  difficulties  the  prefix  indicative  of  the  class  has  been  placed 
at  the  end  of  each  word.  And  the  jirefixes,  looked  at  in  connection  with  the 
subjoined  table,  will  enable  the  reader  to  discriminate  correctly  in  most  cases. 

Those  who  wish  to  study  the  Grammar  cannot  do  better  than  obtain  a 
copy  of  "  The  Zulu-Kafir  Language  Simplified  for  Beginners,"  the  Second 
Edition  of  which  work  will  shortly  be  published. 

But  in  reference  to  many  missionaries  and  others,  whose  knowledge  of  the 
Zulu  tongue  is  considerable,  the  paradigm  given  below  will  be  useful. 

ORTHOGRAPHY  AND  ACCENTUATION. 

1.  The  alphabet  of  the  Zulu  language  is  usually  divided  into  seventeen 
consonants y  five  vovjels,  three  clicks,  and  a  harsh  guttural, 

2.  With  the  exception  of  a  limited  number  of  letters  to  be  noticed 
presently,  the  consonants  are  pronounced  as  in  the  English  language. 

3.  The  vowels  have  the  following  value  : 

a,  as  in  the  English  word  ark,  father. 

6,        , ,  , ,  , ,  late. 

iy        ,,  ,,  ,,  pique,  ravine* 

0,       ,,  „  mole,  pole. 

Uy       „         ,,         „  rule,  ruin. 


When  the  above  have  neither  the  primary  nor  the  secondary  accent,  they  are 
short  or  even  obscure,  particularly  in  final  syllables. 

4.  The  clicks  are  c,  q,  x.  The  first  is  made  by  pressing  the  tip  of  thft 
tongue  against  the  upper  teeth,  and  withdrawing  it  rapidly.  English  people 
when  surprised  make  the  exact  sound  required.  By  placing,  in  a  similar 
manner,  the  tongue  against  the  palate,  the  q  click  is  produced.  The  drivers 
of  vehicles  have  long  been  accustomed  to  urge  forward  horses  by  a  peculiar 
vocal  sound  known  in  Zulu  as  the  x  click.  The  absolute  sounds  will  be 
easily  acquired  ;  but  to  blend  them  with  a  syllable  will  require  much  practice. 

5.  is  a  harsh  guttural. 

6.  G  is  always  hard,  as  in  give. 

7.  The  syllables  hi  and  dhl  not  admitting  of  any  satisfactory  explanation 
will  be  best  learnt  viod  voce  from  a  Native.  In  the  Welsh  language  sound ;^ 
not  unlike  these  often  occur. 

8.  In  rapid  utterance  the  last  syllable  undergoes  what  grammarians  call 
apocope  J  or  the  elision  of  the  final  vowel. 

9.  In  respect  to  the  accent,  although  the  stress  of  the  voice  falls  upon 
';he  penultimate  of  each  word,  there  is  in  polysyllables  a  secondary  accent  on 
the  first  syllable.  The  particle  ke  is  treated  as  if  united  to  the  word  it 
follows,  and  draws  the  accent  forward  :  ex.  ham'ba,  go ;  hamba'-ke.  The 
interrogative  particle  iia,  when  standing  alone,  invariably  takes  the  accent.

REMAKKS. 


1.  Nouns  of  Class  I.  are  nearly  all  personal.  The  exceptions  include  a  few 
animals  as  well  as  things  ;  as,  unohemu,  a  crane  ;  ufakolweni,  a  half-crown. 
Kouns  of  this  class  form  their  plural  in  o,  as  onohemu,  cranes  ;  ofakolweni, 
half-crowns. 

2.  The  plural  of  Class  II.  is  obtained  by  substituting  a  for  Hi  and  i. 

3.  Class  III.  takes  vd^  izim,  i'dn. 

4.  Collective  nouns  belong  to  Class  IV.,  as  isintu,  mankind.  The  plural 
takes  izi  in  place  of  the  rejected  isi. 

5.  Nouns  of  Class  V.  are  for  the  most  part  impersonal.  They  form  their 
[>lural  in  izi^  izim,  izin. 

7.  Abstract  nouns  belong  to  Class  VII.  :  e.g.,  ubuhle,  beauty. 

8.  Verbal  substances  must  be  referred  to  Class  VIII. 

9.  A  substantive  is  made  feminine  by  the  suffix  kazi  :  e.g.,  ihashi,  a  horse  ; 
iliashikazi,  a  mare.  In  some  instances  this  termination  is  intended  to 
intensify  the  meaning  :  e.g.,  itye,  a  stone  ;  ityekazi,  a  large  stone. 

10.  Diminutives  arc  formed  by  changing  the  final  o  or  u  into  vxina  or 
vjanyana  :  e.g.,  umuntu,  an  adult  ;  umuntwana,  a  child.  Other  vowels  are 
changed  into  any%nrt,  and  in  a  few  cases  into  j ana :  e.g.,  umntwana, 
umntwanyana,  a  little  child  ;  isilonda,  a  sore  ;  isilonjana,  a  pimple  ;  isaka,  a 
sack  ;  isakana,  a  pocket.  Compare  the  English  words  iwcket  and  satchel 
with  2ooke  and  sack. 

11.  The  last  consonant  also  undergoes  a  change,  thus, — 

h  into  j  or  ty,  as  intaba,  mountain  ;  intatyana,  hill. 

m         ny  inkomo,  cow  ;  inkonyana,  a  calf. 

rob  ,,     nj       ,,  intambo,  cord  ;  intan3^ana. 

n    ,,     ny  umntwana,  child ;  umntwanyana. 

p    ,,     ty  kufupi,  near  (old  colony)  ;  kufutyana. 

12.  The  ya  of  column  3  is  the  emphatic  affirmative  form  ;  e.g.,  ngi  tanda 
lendoda,  I  like  this  man  ;  ngiya  yi  tanda,  I  do  like  him. 

13.  The  last  three  columns  of  the  table  exhibit  the  possessive  form  for 
proper  and  common  substantives.  One  or  another  of  them  appears  in  nearly 
every  Zulu  sentence.    The  examples  subjoined  will  show  how  to  use  them  : 


xii. 


isando  (the  i  is  elided)  sake,  his  hammer ;  isitya  sika  John,  Jolm's  plate  ; 
intambo  yika  Mali,  Mali's  cord  ;  umfazi  wasem-Giiiigundhlovii,  a  Avoman  of 
Maritzburg. 


VEEBS. 

1.  Causative"  verbs  are  formed  by  inserting  is  before  the  final  a:  e.g. 
ngiya  sebenza,  I  work  ;  ngiya  sebenzisa,  I  cause  to  work. 

2.  Some  verbs  ending  in  ka  reject  this  termination  in  favour  of  za  :  ex, 
ukukatala,  to  be  weary  ;  ukukataza,  to  make  weary. 

3.  Objective  "  verbs  take  el  before  the  final  a  ;  as  ngiya  lobela  wena,  I  am 
writing  for  or  to  you. 

4.  "Refiective"  verbs  zi  immediately  before  the  root;  as  uya  zi  tanda 
yena,  he  loves  himself. 

5.  "Reciprocal"  verbs  are  formed  by  placing  an  before  the  final  letter: 
e.g. ,  baya  sizcwia,  they  help  each  other,  or  one  another.
